Microsoft is expanding the crash reporting function ofDev Center, allowing Windows and Windows Phone app developers to have quicker access to more detailed set of crash data.

The Dev Center’s new unified dashboard gives app developers more comprehensive crash information that was previously not available and sends the reports to the developer quicker. Before, only crash data associated with a .cab file (a compressed library of files) was shown. But now the new unified Dev Center shows crash data as soon as it is available regardless of whether there is a .cab file for it. The Dev Center also provides a number of new reports, some of which are:

The new reports can be found by going to ‘App overview’ in the Dev Center, in either the ‘Health’ or ‘Download Reports’ options under the ‘Analytics’ menu.

Today’s announcementalso highlights a few steps a developer can take with the new Dev Center to start debugging apps and also asks the developer community to let Microsoft know what kind of additional information would be helpful for debugging apps.

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
